Argentina national team regains top spot in FIFA ranking

2026년 06월 04일

The Albiceleste returned to the top of the FIFA ranking after results from Spain and France in their pre-World Cup friendlies.

The Argentina national team regained the top position in the FIFA ranking one week before the start of the 2026 World Cup. This followed France's defeat and Spain's draw in preparation matches. The Albiceleste had lost the lead in September of the previous year. According to the AFA, “the Argentina national team, last world champion, regained the first position in the ranking elaborated by FIFA”. The team led by Lionel Scaloni reaches the top of the list before its debut against Algeria in the World Cup.

Initial reactions on X celebrate Argentina's return to the top of the FIFA rankings after France and Spain's results, with some users noting the historical 'curse' of top-ranked teams not winning the World Cup and others pointing out the passive nature of the change.

Argentina has just returned to number 1 in the FIFA World rankings by doing fuck all (they haven't played any pre-WC friendlies yet) because Spain and France are like Tweedledee and Tweedledum here and being fucking useless

📊🇦🇷 Argentina lidera la más reciente actualización del Ranking FIFA, superando a España y Francia. Sin embargo, un dato curioso acompaña este logro: ninguna selección que llegó a una Copa del Mundo como número uno del ranking ha logrado conquistar el título. 👀🏆⚽ pic.twitter.com/9oIW8WNx9t
